compact, instinctive Tennessee State CB who brought heat in coverage and run support
In the 2000 season at Tennessee State, Ligarius Jennings stood out as a strong, compact corner who was instinctive in coverage and fearless in run support, with evaluators praising his quickness, competitiveness, and ability to deliver a jarring hit to separate receivers from the ball. His Tennessee State career closed with 176 tackles and 7 interceptions, and he was an All-OVC second-team pick in 1999 and 2000. That profile says “physical playmaker” more than “stat-sheet specialist,” which makes him appealing if a team wants toughness, energy, and a CB who plays like every snap has a grudge.
